Description: Through the Sepulveda Basin, the LA River has a soft (earth) bottom with tall trees and plenty of birds and other wildlife. The site features plenty of parking, convenient restrooms, and is surrounded by wide grassy playing fields great for picnicing.

Special Notes:The River can be a bit muddy, especially if it has rained recently, so wear sensible shoes.

DIRECTIONS:

Bike: Easy access from the Sepulveda Basin Bike Path on Balboa Blvd at the River. This path connects with the Metro Orange Line bikeway.

Transit: Take the Metro Orange Line exit at Balboa Blvd and walk one block south to the River. Alternately take Metro lines 236/237 on Balboa Blvd. and exit at the stop just south of the River (between Burbank Blvd and Victory Blvd.)

Driving: Exit the 405 Freeway at Burbank Blvd. in Van Nuys and go west on Victory. Turn left on Woodley. Turn Left into the Japanese Gardens park.
